CHAPTER XXIII— Continued 1
—16—
“Great heavens !” he exclaimed “To
Oder's the dart In the hustle I had for-
gotten It and I’ll bet old David has—
if he hasn’t simply Ignored it That
accounts for the reunion at the Metro-
pole!” “Don’t worry" said Harlan easily
“‘The bank has gone vanished shut up
ahop At the end of the ends I sup-
pose they can make David pay but
they can’t very well cinch him for not
meeting hie notes on the dot"
“Masslngale doesn’t really owe them
anything that he can’t pay” Brouillard
asserted "By wiring and writing and
-digging up figures we found that the
-capitalising stockholders otherwise J
Wesley Cortwright and- possibly
Schermerhorn have actually invested
fifty-two thousand dollars or rather
that amount of Masslngale’s loan has
been expended in equipment and pay
rolls Three weeks ago the old man
got the smelter -superintendent over
here from Red Butte and arranged for
an advance of fifty-two thousand dot
lars on the ore in stock the money to
be paid when the first train of ore
-cars should be on the way in It was
paid promptly in New York exchange
and Massingale indorsed the draft over
to me to be used in the directors’ meet-
lng which was never held"
“Go over and flash Masslngale’s fifty-
two thousand dollars at ’em They’ll
turn loose Ill bet a yellow cur worth
fifteen cents that they're wishing there
was a train out of this little section of
Hheol right npw Hear that I”
The crash of an explosion rattled
the windows and the red loom on the
' -Jack’s mountain side of the town
leaped np and became a momentary
glare The fell spirit of destruction
of objectless wreck and ruin was
nbroad and Brouillard turned to the
stairway door
“I’ll have to be making the rounds
Again" he said "The Greeks and Ital-
ians are too excitable to stand much of
this Take care of yourself I’ll leave
-Grit and a dosen of the trusties to look
after the shop"
When Brouillard reached the side-
walk the upper avenue was practically
deserted But in the eastern residence
-district and well around to the north
new storm-centers were marked by the
Increasing number of fires Brouillard
stopped and faced toward the distant
and invisible Tlmanyonls A chill au--tumn
breese was sweeping down from
the heights and the blockading wall of
the great dam turned it into eddies
and dust-pillared whirls dancing in the
- -empty street
Young Grlillth sauntered up with his
Winchester in the hollow of his arm
“Anything new!" he asked
“No" said Brouillard “I was Just
thinking that a little wind would go a
long way tonight ’ with tbeee crasy
liouee-buniers loose on the town" Then
he turned and walked rapidly to the
government headquarters passed the
sentry at the door of the mapping
room and out of Jhe fireproof vault
-where the drawings and blue-print
' duplicates were kept took a small tin
dispatch box
He had opened the box and had
transferred a slip of paper from it to
the leather-covered pocket field book
which served him for a wallet when
there was a stir at the door and Cast-
ner hurried in looking less the clergy-
man than the hard-working peace of-
ficer “More bedlam" he announced “I
-want Gassman or Handley and twenty
or thirty good men The mob has gone
from wreoklng and burning to murder-
ing ’Pegleg’ John was beaten to death
In front of his saloon a few minutes
ago It Is working this way There
were three fires in the plaia as I came
through"
"Bee Orlslow at the commissary and
tall him 1 sent you” said the chief
“I’d go with you but I’m due at the
Metropola”
"Good Then Miss Amy got word to
you? I was Just about to deliver her
message"
"Mias Masslngalef Where Is she
and what was the message T" demand-
d Brouillard 1
"Then you haven't heard? The ’Lit-
' tie Susan’ is In the hands of a sheriff’s
posse and David Masslngale Is under
arrest on some trumped-up charge-
selling ore for his individual acoount
or something of that sort Miss Amy
didn’t go into particulars but she told
me that she had heard the sheriff say
it was a penitentiary offense"
"But where is she now?" stormed
Brouillard
"Over at the hotel I supposed you
knew you said you were going there"
Brouillard snatched up the dispatch
box and flung it into the fireproof
While he was locking the door Castner
went In search of Grlslow and when
Brouillard faced about another man
stood In the missionary’s place by the
mapping table It was Mr J Wesley
Cortwright
"I didn’t think I’d have to ask a
favor of you again Brouillard but
needs must when the devil drives” he
began with an attempted assumption
of his former manner "We didn’t know
—the newspapers didn’t tell us any-
thing about this frightful state of af-
fairs and—”
Brouillard had suddenly lost his de-
sire to hurry
"Sit down Mr Cortwright” he said
"I was Just coming over to see you —
to congratulate you and Mr Schenner-
horn on your return to Mlrapolls We
have certainly missed the mayor not
to mention the president of the com-
mon council”
"Of course— yes” was the hurried
rejoinder "But that’s all over You
said you’d get us and you did I don’t
bear malice If you had given me one
more day I’d have got you the stuff
that would hare broken your neck with
the Washington people was all writ-
ten and ready to put on the wires But
that’s past and gone and the next
thing is something else There is a
lot of money and securities lofcked up
in the Niquoia bank vault We’ve come
to clean up and we brought a few
peace officers along from Red Butte
for a guard The miserable Scoundrels
are scared stiff they won’t stir out of
the hotel Bongras tells me you’ve got
your force organized and armed— can’t
you lend us fifty or a hundred huskies
to keep the mob off while we open that
bank vault?"
Broulllard’s black eyes snapped and
the blood danced in his veins The op-
portunity for which he would have bar-
tered Ormuz’ treasure had come to
him— was begging him to use it
‘1 certainly can” he admitted an-
swering the eager question and empha-
sising the potentiality 1
"But will yop? that’s the point Well
make it worth your while For God’s
sake don’t say no Brouillard 1 There’s
pretty well up to a million in that
vault counting odds- and ends and
left-overs Schermerhorn oughtn’t to
have left it I thought he had sense
enough to stay and see it taken care
of But now— ’
"But now the mob is very likely to
wreck the building and dynamite the
vault you were going to say I think
it is more than likely Mr Cortwright
and I wonder that it hasn’t been done
before this It would have been done
if the rioters had had any idea that
you’d left anything worth taking And
it would probably wreck you and Mr
Schermerhorn if it should get hold of
you you’ve both been burned in effigy
half a dosen times since you ran
away”
"Oh good Lord!" shuddered the
magnate "Make It twe hundred of
your men and let’s hurry You won’t
turn us down on this Brouillard?”
"No It is no part of our duty to
go and keep the mob off while you
reulllare Get Between
save your stealings but we’ll do It
And from the noise they are making
down that way I think you are wise in
suggesting haste But first there is a
question of common Justice to be
settled An hour ago or such a mat-
ter you sent a part of your sheriff’s
posse up to seise the T-ittle Busan’ aad
to arrest David Masslngale—1
"It’s— It’s a lie!" stammered Cort-
wrlgfat "Somebody has been trying to
baekeap me to you!"
Brouillard looked up frowning
"You are a good bit older man than
I am Mr Cortwright and I sha’n’t
punch your head But you’ll know why
I ought to when I tell you that my In-
formant is Miss Amy Masslngale
What have you done with old David?”
The man who had -lost bis knack of
bluffing came down and stayed down
"He’s— he’s vover at the hotel" he
stammered
“Under guard?”
"Well— y-yes”
Brouillard pointed to the telephone
on the wall
“Go and call up Vour crowd and get
It here Tell Judge Williams to bring
the stock be is bolding and Scher-
merhorn to bring the Masslngale
notes and your man Jackson to bring
the stock-book Well have a direc-
tors’ meeting that was called and
wasn’t held three weeks ago"
It was a crude little expedient but
it sufficed Cortwright tramped to the
’phone and cursed and swore at it un-
til he had his man at the other end of
the wire The man was the lawyer
as it appeared and Cortwright abused
him spitefully
"You’ve balled It— balled It beauti-
fully I” he shouted "Come over here
to Broulllard’s office and bring Sher-
merhorn and the stock and the notes
and Jackson and the secretary’s books
and Masslngale and your Infernal self)
Get a move and get it qulckt We
stand to lose the whole loaf because
you had to butt in and sweep up the
crumbs first!"
When the procession arrived as it
did in an Incredibly short time Brouil-
lard laid down the law
“We don’t need these" he said curt-
ly indicating the two deputies who
came to bring David Masslngale And
when they were gone: "Now gentle-
men get to work and do business and
the less time you waste the better
chance there will be for your bank
salvage Three requirements I make:
you will turn over the stock putting
Mr Masslngale in possession of his
mine without incumbrance you will
cancel and surrender his notes to the
bank and you will give him a docu-
ment signed by all of you acknowl-
edging the payment in full of all
claims past or pending While you
are straightening things out I’ll ring
up the yards and rally your guard”
Cortwright turned on the lawyer
"You hear what Brohillard says fix
It and do it suddenly”
It was done almost before Brouillard
had made Leshington in charge of the
yards understand what was wanted
"Now a note to your man at the
mine to make him let go without put-
ting us to the trouble of throwing him
over the dump” said the engineer
when he had looked over the stock
transfers examined the canceled notes
and read and witnessed the signatures
on the receipt in full
Cortwright nodded tq the lawyer
and when Williams began to write
-again the king of the promoters
turned upon Brouillard with a savage
sneer
“Once more you’ve had your price
he snarled bitterly "You and the old
man have bilked us out of what we
spent on the mine But we’ll call it
an even break if you’ll hufry that gang
of huskies" 1
"We’ll call ty-an even break when it
Is one" retorted Brouillard and after
he had gathered up the papers he took
the New York check from his pocket-
book indorsed it and banded it to
Cortwright “That is what was spent
out of the hundred thousand dollars
you had Mr Masslngale charged with
as nearly as we can ascertain Take
It and take care of it it’s real money
He had turned again to the tele-
phone to hurry Leshington had rung
the call and was chuckling grimly
over the collapse of the four men at
the end of the mapping table as they
fingered the slip of money paper Sud-
denly it was borne in upon him that
there was trouble of some sort at the
door— there were curses a blow a mad
rush then It was Stephen Mas-
singale who had fought hls way past
the door-guarding sentry and stood
blinking at the group at the far end
of the mapping board
' "You’re the houn’ dog I’m lookin’
for!" he raged singling out Cortwright
when the dazzle of the electrics per-
mitted him to see "You’ll rob an old
man first and then call him a thief
and set the sheriff on him will you—?”
Masslngale’s pistol was dropping to
the firing level when Brouillard flung
away the telephone earpiece and got
between Afterward there was a
crash like a collision of worlds a
whirling dancing medley of colored
lights fading away to gray and then to
darkness and the engineer went down
with the avenger of wrongs tightly
locked in his arms
e
After the period of darkness had
passed and Brouillard opened hls eyes
again upon the world of things as they
are he had a confused Idea that he
had overslept shamefully and that the
Indulgence had given him a bad head-
ache The next thought was that the head-
ache was responsible for a set of singu-
lar hallucinations Hls blanket bunk
In the sleeping shack seemed to have
transformed itself into a white bed
with pillows and snowy sheets and
the bed was drawn up beside an open
window through which he could look
out or seem to look out upon a vast
sea dimpling in the breese and reflect-
ing the sunshine so brightly that' it
made hls headache a darting agony
When he turned hls face to escape
the blinding glare of the sun on the
sea the hallucinations became sooth-
ingly comforting not to say ecstatlo
Someone was sitting oq the edge of
the bed a’ cool hand was laid on hls
forehead and when he could again
see straight he found himself looking
up into a pair of violet eyes In which
the tears were trembling
"You are Amy— and this is that
other world you used to talk about
isn’t it?" he-asked feebly
The cool hand slipped from hls fore-
head to hls lips as If to warn him
that he must not talk and he went
through the motions of kissing It
When it was withdrawn he broke the
silent prohibition promptly
"The way to keep me from talking Is
to do It all yourself what happened
to me last night?"
She shook her head sorrowfully
"The ’last night you mean was three
weeks ago Btevle was trying to shoot
Mr Cortwright in your office and you
got between thorn Do you remember
that?”
“Perfectly" he ‘said "But it still
seems as If it were only last night
Where am I now?— not that it makes
any difference so long as I’m wit)
you"
"You are at home— our home at the
tittle Busan’ Mr Leshington had
the men carry you up here and Mr
Ford ran a special train all the way
from Denver with the doctors
Stevie's bullet struck you in the head
and— and we all thought you were go
ing to die"
"I'm not" he asserted in feebly dee
perate determination "I'm going to
8he Slipped an Arm Under Hls Shoul-
der and Raised Him
live and get to work and earn a hun-
dred thousand dollars so I can say
‘Come little girl— ’"
Again the restraining hand was laid
upon hls lips and- again he went
through the motions of kissing it
"You mustn’t talk!” she insisted
"You said you’d let me" And when
he made the sign of acquiescence she
went on: f’At first the doctors wouldn’t
give us any hope at all they said yoc
might live hut you’d— you’d never-
never remember— never have your rea
son again But yesterday — ’’
“Please!” he pleaded “That’s mors
than enough about me I want to know
what happened”
"That night you mean? VAll ths
things that you bad planned for Fa
ther got the mine back and Mr Leah-
lngton and the others got the riot
quelled after about halt of the city was
burned”
“But Cortwright and Schermerhorn—
I promised them—”
“Mr Leshington carried out you!
promise and helped them get ths
money out of the bank vault before ths
mob sacked the Niquoia building and
dynamited it But at the hotel they
were arrested on the order of the bank
examiner and everything was takes
away from them We haven't heard
yet what is going to be done with
them"
“And Gomorrah?" he asked
She slipped an arm under hls shoul
ders and raised him so he could look
out upon the mountaln-glrt sea dim
pllng under the morning breeze
"There is where it was” she said
soberly "where It was and Is not and
never will be again thank Godl Mr
Leshington waited until everybody had
escaped and then he shut the waste
way gates"
Brouillard sank back upon the pU-
lows of comfort and closed hls eyes
“Then it’s all up to me and the hun-
dred thousand" he whispered "And
I’ll get it honestly this time"
The violet eyes wsre smiling when
he looked into them again
“Is she— the one Incomparable she—
worth it Victor?"
"Her price Is above rubles as I
told you once a long time ago"
“You wouldn’t let pride— a false
pride— stand in the way of her happi-
ness?" “I haven't any her love has mads
me very humble and— and good Amy
dear Don’t laugh: it's the only word
I'm Just hungering and thirsting after
righteousness enough to be half-way
worthy of her”
“Then I’ll tell you something else
that has happened Father and Btevle
have reorganized the ‘Little Susan
Mining company dividing the stock
Into four equal parts— one for eacll of
us You must take your share Victor
It will break father’s heart it you don’t
He says you got it back for him after
It was hopelessly lost and that la
true"
‘Kiss me Amy girl and then go and
tell your father that be Is a simple-
hearted old spendthrift and I love him’
And if you could wire Castner and
tell him to bring a license along—”
"Oh boy— foolish boy!” she said
"Yfatt when you are well and strong
again
But she did not make him wait for
the first of tbs askings and after n
healing silence bad fallen to show ths
needlessness of speech between those
who have come through darkness into
light he fell asleep again perhaps to
dream that the quieting hand upon hls
forehead was the touch of Love angel
of the-brtght and shining way summon-
ing him to rise up and go forward as a
soul set free to meet the dawning day
of fruition

J-ESSON FOR APRIL I
JE8U8 GIVE8 8IGHT TO BLIND
LESSON TEXT-John 0:1-11 K-S8 (Read
entire chapter)
GOLDEN TEXT— I am the light of the
world— John :£
This another of the signs which
Jesus performed Is recorded only by
John It probably occurred In Octo-
ber six months before the crucifixion
while Jesus was attending the Feast
of the Tabernacles There are six
other cases of blindness recorded as
having been cured Look them up
I The Case (w 1-4) It was abso-
lutely hopeless No human skill could
touch it but Jesus “passed by” and
that changed everything What men
cannot do Jesus cun Jesus Is passing
today and we may expect things quite
as wonderful to happen (John 14 :12)
This blind man Illustrates the unsaved
sinner (I Cor 2:14) He never had
seen He was beyond human help (v
32) He hud doubtless given up all
hope of seeing He was without sym-
pathy suspected and despised (vv 2
34) Poor— he was a beggar He Is
also a type of the nation of Israel
(Itev 3 :17) We must not attempt to
expluin all sickness (v 8) God fre-
quently uses It for the advancement
of his kingdom (John 11:4) Jesus
not only passed by but he "saw” The
feeling of the crowd was that of curi-
osity and contempt Hls feeling was
that of compassion (vv 2 4 and 6)
Sickness sometimes manifests God's
sustaining grace (II Cor 12:8-10) It
Is doubtless true that a large percent-
age of sickness Is the direct result of
sin (John 5:14 Mk 2:5 Acts 12:23)
some of course Indirectly (Job 23 :14-
30) II The Cure (w 4-11) The word
‘‘must’’ In verse four Is a strong one
The time for us to do our work Is
“now” This word “must” carries with
It the Idea of a divine Imperative and
the reason for that imperativeness is
the approaching “night” Night is
coming fast when no man can work
Notice the works we are to do are not
our own but “the works of him that
sent me” Compare carefully verses
two and four and see that Jesus con-
sidered delivering the man from evil
fur more Important than speculating
about the origin of hls complaint Too
much time is spent' In investigation
Let us have more of action The
means used in this cure were clay and
spittle -The miracle was performed In
plain view of all who might see The
man did not ask Jesus to help him but
Jesus bad gone where he was (v 5)
Hls words “Go wash” were a test of
the man’s faith (II Kings 6:10-14)
and hls part In the transaction waa a
testimony that It was Christ who
worked the cure The use of the
material means In thlB ceremony made
the man mere willing to go and wash
It gave him something to do and doing
Is always an end to faith SUoam
means “sent” and was a type of Jesus
himself (v 4 John 10:36 Rom 8:3
Gal 4:4) If we wish to receive sight
for our blind eyes we should go to
him and bathe (John 8:12)
' III The Controversy (v 12 to end of
chapter) This controversy gave op-
portunity for testimony as we have
already seen first of all upon the part
of the man whose testimony was pro-
gressive At first he merely spoke of
the fact He was not acquainted with
Jesus for he calls him- "The man
called Jesus” Later on he Is moved
to cull him a "prophet" He is a
prophet (v" 17) and later still he
recognizes him as “The Son of God”
(vv 35-38) This controversy estab-
lished beyond question the fact of the
cure It brought out the deity of
Christ (v 83) The-man was excom-
municated but for that matter he was
already outside because of hls physical
Infirmity but best of all he became
truly Christ’s disciple
IV Comments This lesson with Its
vivid contrasts of belief and unbelief
gives us a wonderful 'opportunity to
urge upon pupils a decision to live the
Christian life Haa Christ opened the
eyes of our scholar to' the love of
God to the awfulness of sin to the
need of a Savior our divine Leader
ind Brother? Urge them In the class
tod out to be as outspoken and coup-
igeous for Christ as was this man who
had never before perhaps seen or
heard of Jesus and whose gratitude at
once called forth this wonderful con-
fession Being cast out by the rhles of the
lynngogue brought this man Into closer
and deeper fellowship and commun-
ion with Jesus
He hnd believed far enough to obey
hls bidding and had thus been healed
Now he Is brought to a great sav-
ing transforming fullh viz that Jesus
Is the Son of God
Do we tnke advantage of our privi-
lege of confession?
Before Christ came there were no
hospitals
He Is tlm Inspiration of all charitable
Institutions but healing of the body Is
of secondary Importance the healing
nf the soul Is primary "Whereas I
was blind now I see”
Start with wlmt you know— your own
eiei-len-e— and he will reveal himself
nccordlng to your developing and pro-
gressive needs
